Faulty signal
Checking the wiring
- Ignition off
- Disconnect central electronic module (CEM) connector D.
Check the ground lead. Check for an open-circuit.
Take readings between:
- Central electronic module (CEM) terminal #D45 (45) and the fuel level sensor on the left-hand side.
Remedy as necessary.

Was a fault detected?
Yes - Verification
No - Replacing the component
-------------------------------------------------
Replacing the component
The central electronic module (CEM) has registered that the fuel level sensor on the left-hand side is faulty.
If the fault is intermittent, it has been registered previously but is no longer present. Intermittent faults can be caused by interference at start up of the central electronic module (CEM) or may be a different type of fault which occurs on different occasions. The fault is evaluated depending on how it occurs. Replace the fuel level sensor on the left-hand side if the fault recurs.
Replace the fuel level sensor on the left-hand side if there is a permanent fault.
Remedy as necessary.
